^ great. the count is 80 now. thankfully, its stopped running.

^^I wonder is it even worth taking lives, creating havoc n shit??

I hope this ride happens.. it'd be a nice kick on their balls that we won't back up.

Man, while most of the Mumbaikars r sleeping, am still restless to know how are things outside(m in office), still no idea what exactly going on.. we are not allowed to move out, damn!!

After one of the most violent terror attacks on Indian soil,which saw Mumbai burning last night (and which is still going on to this hour!), what is the fate of this ride? Is it still on?

I mean the security and all must be tough although the xBhpians have got police permissions but their (security forces')focus would shift now

^^ i agree with u, bt as a fellow member said... if this ride happens then will also make it a peace ride... to kick off their ass... and to let everyone out there who wants/likes to make trouble/riots know that may whatever they do... they can't bring us down...

Its total havoc and mayhem. All those who have lost their lives during this terrorist attack, rest in peace and those who are injured get enough support from the government and general public.

The attacks still dont seem to take rest as of now, and in such a situation nothing would be allowed atleast for a week, leave alone our safety ride .

I had a talk with Niranjan (Pune) and they(pune guys) seems to have similar views on the ride/rally thing that we are doing.

Latest Update: It seems like the Taj Hotel, old building will be completely burned down.
Terrorists came into mumbai yesterday through the sea, in a hovercraft speed boat.

^^ you r rt bro....

bt don't know
whats gonna happen next... i hope the ride thingy dosen't get canceled...

What!!??

I wonder what's gonna happen. I hope Vijay responds here and confirms the status on the ride. Things look very grim and im hearing of bundhs etc on monday in maharashtra. Unsure of this. Unless this is over by tonight and full control over the affected areas are established the fate of our ride will be unknown. Im due to leave for pune tomorrow. Wondering what i should do now! Wonder if the cops would change their mind of giving permission for holding the ride!?

Can someone contact vijay and confirm the ride asap!?

^ errr... i dont think things are gonna be that easy mate. whole of mumbai is in shock and still hostage situation in many places. if you end up asking the police walas bout the ride, you gonna get a kick in the ass for sure and maybe the ride would be called out by them itself.
patience... and for now, pray for the people.

only the top floor has burned up completely from the inside leaving only the outside shell intact, all their guests have turned up at my hotel the fourseasons mumbai, with taj footing the bill
